In Client Directory: =DATEDIF(TODAY(), [Contract End Date], "d") — calculates days until contract expires.
In Performance Tracker: =SUMIFS(PerformanceTracker!E:E, PerformanceTracker!C:C, [@Client ID]) — sums total views per client.
In Dashboards: =COUNTIF(ContentCalendar!F:F,"Published") — counts total published items.
Auto-numbering: =ROW()-1 (in Client Directory to auto-generate sequential Client IDs after header).

Conditional Formatting Rules

Content Calendar: Highlight rows where Publish Date is within 3 days → yellow fill; overdue → red fill.
Client Directory: Clients with “Inactive” status → light gray background.
Content Briefs: Tasks past Due Date and Status ≠ “Completed” → red text + bold.
Dashboards: KPI bars color-coded: green (>80% target), yellow (60–79%), red (<60%).
